Rengginang
''Rengginang'' or ''ranginang'' is a kind of Indonesian thick rice cracker, made from cooked glutinous sticky rice and seasoned with spices, made into a flat and rounded shape, and then sun-dried. The sun-dried ''rengginang'' is deep fried with ample cooking oil to produce a crispy rice cracker. This cracker is quite different from other types of traditional Asian crackers such as the Indonesian '' krupuk'' and the Japanese ''senbei'' or '' beika''; while most of traditional crackers' ingredients are ground into a fine paste, ''rengginang'' retains the shapes of its rice grains. It is similar to Japanese '' arare'', and yet it differs because ''arare'' are individually separated larger rice pellets, while ''rengginang'' rice granules are stuck together in a flat-rounded shape. ''Rengginang'' traditionally made from dried leftover rice. In Suriname it is known as ''brong-brong''. ''Rengginang'' can be plain, or flavoured sweet, salty or savoury.

Rempeyek or peyek is a deep-fried savoury Indonesian- Javanese cracker made from flour (usually rice flour) with other ingredients, bound or coated by crispy flour batter. The most common type of rempeyek is ''peyek kacang'' ("peanut peyek"); however, other ingredients can be used instead, such as ''teri'' (dried anchovies), ''rebon'' (small shrimp), or ''ebi'' ( dried shrimp). Today, rempeyek is commonly found in Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as in countries with considerable Indonesian migrant populations, such as The Netherlands and Suriname.

Sticky Rice
Glutinous rice (''Oryza sativa var. glutinosa''; also called sticky rice, sweet rice or waxy rice) is a type of rice grown mainly in Southeast and East Asia, and the northeastern regions of South Asia, which has opaque grains, very low amylose content, and is especially sticky when cooked. It is widely consumed across Asia. It is called glutinous ( la, glūtinōsus) in the sense of being glue-like or sticky, and not in the sense of containing gluten (which it does not). While often called ''sticky rice'', it differs from non-glutinous strains of japonica rice which also become sticky to some degree when cooked. There are numerous cultivars of glutinous rice, which include ''japonica'', ''indica'' and ''tropical japonica'' strains. History In China, glutinous rice has been grown for at least 2,000 years. However, researchers believe that glutinous rice distribution appears to have been culturally influenced and closely associated with the early southward migration and distri ...
